Rams WR Adams a game-time decision vs. Lions
14 Dec
Summary
- Matthew Stafford leads league with 35 passing touchdowns at age 37.
- Davante Adams is questionable for the Rams vs. Lions matchup.
- Tutu Atwell activated from injured reserve, ready if Adams sits.
The Los Angeles Rams are in a tight race for the NFC's top playoff seed, but injuries are threatening their Super Bowl aspirations. A key concern for Week 15 is the uncertain status of star wide receiver Davante Adams for their game against the Detroit Lions.
Veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford, enjoying a career resurgence at 37, has been instrumental in the Rams' success, leading the league with 35 passing touchdowns. However, his connection with Adams, the team's red zone threat with 14 touchdowns, is crucial. Adams' availability is a game-time decision after limited practice, casting doubt on his participation against his former team.
Should Adams be sidelined, the Rams will activate wide receiver Tutu Atwell from injured reserve. Atwell, who has been sidelined since Week 8 with a hamstring injury, returns with full practice participation, offering a significant morale and offensive boost. His familiarity with the Rams' system makes him a capable replacement, providing a "luxury" according to head coach Sean McVay.
